We&#8217;ve all tried <a href=\"https:\/\/rarathemes.com\/blog\/on-page-seo-techniques\/\">on-page<\/a> and off-page SEO techniques to achieve a first page rank on search engines with that in mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But, did you know that you might not be getting the traffic you should because of your web host?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although unfortunate, you need not worry. We will discuss the<strong> 14 best WordPress hosting services <\/strong>to help you find the best solution.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, you&#8217;re still left questioning, \u201cwhat\u2019s up with a good web host and the traffic of your website?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, <a href=\"https:\/\/developers.google.com\/search\/blog\/2010\/04\/using-site-speed-in-web-search-ranking\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Google has officially announced<\/a> that the site speed will be considered a ranking factor. And, the speed of a website depends a lot on the hosting servers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, all the effort and money you are spending on SEO will go in vain because you are not using a good web host.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your web host is killing your WordPress blog\/website because your site&#8217;s slower response time increases the bounce rate. The bounce rate is the measure of how quickly a visitor gets off your WordPress website\/blog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But, it\u2019s not easy finding the best web host for your WordPress website. After all, there are so many paid reviews all over the Internet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, as a WordPress development agency, we thought we needed to do an honest review of the hosting companies out there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s a table of the summary of the review of the best Hosting for WordPress. After the table, you will find a detailed explanation of what web hosting is, why you should get a good web host and other essential information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_76 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title ez-toc-toggle\" style=\"cursor:pointer\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/rarathemes.com\/blog\/best-wordpress-hosting\/#List_of_Best_WordPress_Hosting_Providers\" >List of Best WordPress Hosting Providers<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/rarathemes.com\/blog\/best-wordpress-hosting\/#What_is_a_Web_Host\" >What is a Web Host?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/rarathemes.com\/blog\/best-wordpress-hosting\/#Why_Should_You_Get_a_Good_Web_Host\" >Why Should You Get a Good Web Host?<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/rarathemes.com\/blog\/best-wordpress-hosting\/#Its_easy_to_get_cheated\" >It\u2019s easy to get cheated<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/rarathemes.com\/blog\/best-wordpress-hosting\/#About_This_Hosting_Review\" >About This Hosting Review<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"https:\/\/rarathemes.com\/blog\/best-wordpress-hosting\/#What_is_Shared_Hosting\" >What is Shared Hosting?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-7\" href=\"https:\/\/rarathemes.com\/blog\/best-wordpress-hosting\/#Why_Should_You_Trust_Our_Review\" >Why Should You Trust Our Review?<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-8\" href=\"https:\/\/rarathemes.com\/blog\/best-wordpress-hosting\/#You_dont_necessarily_have_to\" >You don\u2019t necessarily have to!<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-9\" href=\"https:\/\/rarathemes.com\/blog\/best-wordpress-hosting\/#We_are_an_experienced_web_company\" >We are an experienced web company.<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-10\" href=\"https:\/\/rarathemes.com\/blog\/best-wordpress-hosting\/#No_one_paid_us_for_the_review\" >No one paid us for the review.<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-11\" href=\"https:\/\/rarathemes.com\/blog\/best-wordpress-hosting\/#The_metrics_we_have_covered\" >The metrics we have covered.<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-12\" href=\"https:\/\/rarathemes.com\/blog\/best-wordpress-hosting\/#Some_Hosting_Terms_to_Watch_Out_For\" >Some Hosting Terms to Watch Out For<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-13\" href=\"https:\/\/rarathemes.com\/blog\/best-wordpress-hosting\/#1_Server\" >1.

id=\"What_is_a_Web_Host\"><\/span>What is a Web Host?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A web host is the home for your website\/blog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Imagine a storage device (your hard disk) that is available remotely. The hard disk contains all the contents (posts, usernames, passwords, images, videos) of your website and can be publicly accessed using your domain name. The technical processes of maintaining and running the host are managed by the hosting providers (in a shared hosting) so just think of web host as a space for you to store your website\/blog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Should_You_Get_a_Good_Web_Host\"><\/span>Why Should You Get a Good Web Host?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides the relationship between the website\u2019s speed, SEO and web host we talked above, a good web host is very important for security reasons too. You don\u2019t want your website to be hacked! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Or, do you?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since web host contains your website, hackers can easily manipulate your website\u2019s contents and take over it (if somehow they managed to get into the hosting server).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, like you would install antivirus and firewall to protect your computer\u2019s hard disk, you would need security measures to protect your web space. And, that\u2019s where web service providers come into play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A good web host will keep your space secure from attack by regularly checking their system for vulnerabilities and malware. Also, a good host will assist you if you are attacked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides making your website secure, a good web host will have minimum downtime, easy to use admin area and a super fast processing power so that your website loads faster. Plus, a full regular backup of your WordPress website and a great support team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you choose an unreliable web host just based on the unbelievable offers on their ads, you might have to face issues later. They may even overtake your site if you don\u2019t upgrade in the future or the hosting company may go out of business and you may lose your website completely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, you should always subscribe to a good web host.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Its_easy_to_get_cheated\"><\/span>It\u2019s easy to get cheated<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some web hosting companies have their own servers, and some are just resellers (you can\u2019t find out who\u2019s who). Plus, the paid reviews all over the internet!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, choosing a good web host for your WordPress website\/blog isn\u2019t an easy task. The chances of you getting cheated are high (especially with the words \u201cunlimited\u201d attached to a web hosting\u2019s features).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember, nothing is free and unlimited in life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hosting companies are here for business. So, you should always read terms and conditions before you get all excited about the unlimited features that web hosting companies advertise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"About_This_Hosting_Review\"><\/span>About This Hosting Review<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Since we have helped so many people create their websites, we thought it\u2019s also our responsibility to help people choose a good web host. That\u2019s why we decided to do an unbiased web hosting review.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To do this hosting review, we subscribed to many web hosting companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some were impressive, many were mediocre, and some were awful. From the good, the bad, and the ugly, we present you the top 10 best WordPress web hosting service providers for a WordPress website\/blog in this article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We reviewed hosting companies for their shared hosting plans only because as a beginner blogger or a startup company, other hosting plans like dedicated hosting are too expensive and you won\u2019t need the resources unless you get traffic in millions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_Shared_Hosting\"><\/span>What is Shared Hosting?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Shared hosting is a web host service in which a large number of websites are hosted on a single server. In simple terms, shared web hosting is like you creating different user accounts on a single computer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All the websites on the server share the resources (CPU, RAM). This allows web hosting companies to provide hosting services for cheap as the server maintenance cost is distributed among many websites like yours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since the resources are shared, your website might be a little slower than other types of web hosting plans. That being said, as a beginner, you won\u2019t notice\/feel the difference if you choose shared hosting plan from a good web hosting company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides the price, the other advantage of a shared hosting for a newbie is the ease of use. You don\u2019t need to hire a professional to manage the server. The hosting companies manage it for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Should_You_Trust_Our_Review\"><\/span>Why Should You Trust Our Review?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are plenty of reviews on the internet, so why should you trust our review?&nbsp; Well, for these reasons:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"You_dont_necessarily_have_to\"><\/span>You don\u2019t necessarily have to!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes. You are free to do your research and decide for yourself. You don\u2019t have to trust us. You can read other hosting related articles. But, please, be careful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another thing. Even if you don\u2019t trust us, please go through the article because it will provide you with a basic guideline on choosing a good web host.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We will talk about the different terminology used in hosting companies and various hosting services in this article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"We_are_an_experienced_web_company\"><\/span>We are an experienced web company.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We know every nook and cranny of the web industry. Our team has worked on web development and the internet for a long time and contributed to this review.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We used Democracy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ratings we have given to the hosting companies are the average of the ratings given by our team members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you trust our web expertise? Then, you should trust this review.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"No_one_paid_us_for_the_review\"><\/span>No one paid us for the review.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike so many reviews on the internet, no one paid us to write this review. We value our customers and wouldn\u2019t let money cloud our judgments.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But, what about the affiliate links? Doesn\u2019t that mean we get money for recommending the services?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, we do get a certain commission (without any extra cost to you) from the referral links. Still, we would never prioritize money over quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another reason we wouldn\u2019t recommend anything to anyone without our thorough, unbiased review is that, simply put, it\u2019s bad for our web business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If a customer chose a web host recommended by us and didn\u2019t get up to par services, we risk losing the customer. As a business that provides web development services, we can\u2019t keep the customer experience line for a few bucks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, our <a href=\"https:\/\/rarathemes.com\/wordpress-themes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">speed optimized WordPress themes<\/a> would not perform well if a web host is slow. And, we don\u2019t want our customers to have a slow WordPress website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_metrics_we_have_covered\"><\/span>The metrics we have covered.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The review fully considers various factors from the speed, cost, security, and ease of use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We used 8 metrics to evaluate the hosting services: speed and performance, uptime, support, price, ease of use, backup option, security, and money-back guarantees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Some_Hosting_Terms_to_Watch_Out_For\"><\/span>Some Hosting Terms to Watch Out For<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Hosting companies are very clever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They advertise some unrealistic figures but with some conditions. So, you need to read the terms and conditions to know the actual offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The flashy highlighted features can be misleading, so here are few definitions of web hosting terms that most web hosting companies use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Server\"><\/span>1. Server:&nbsp;&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A web server is a computer system that stores and delivers web pages using HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol). The program that handles the HTTP requests is also called a web server. Both the software and hardware make a web server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In layman terms, a web server is like your computer that can be accessed remotely and uses a special OS (server) instead of personal Windows or macOS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a shared hosting plan, the hosting company shares one server with multiple users, while on dedicated hosting, a single subscriber uses a single server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Uptime\"><\/span>2. Uptime:&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Uptime is the amount of time your website is live (available). It\u2019s the opposite of downtime. Hosting companies usually advertise uptime in percentage. It is crucial to choose a web host because you will lose both money and credibility if your website is down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many web hosts guarantee 99.9% uptime on their ad, but you will be surprised when you read their service terms. So, you should read the terms of use very carefully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>99% uptime is not high<\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The actual numbers that matter &nbsp;are the ones that come after the first decimal place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, let\u2018s say one web host has 99.90% Uptime and another has 99.97% Uptime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The difference is only 0.07% so that\u2019s not a big deal, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, let\u2019s look how many minutes per month your website will be down for each web hosts with 99.90% and 99.97% uptime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For 99.90 % Uptime:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 100%-99.90%= 0.10%&nbsp; Downtime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Since uptime are calculated per year:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><tbody><tr><td>0.10% of 365 days (in a year)<\/td><td>= 0.365 days of downtime per year<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>&nbsp;<\/td><td>= 525.6 minutes per year (0.365 x 24 x 60)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>&nbsp;Now, 12 months in a year<\/td><td>= 526.6\/12 minutes<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>&nbsp;<\/td><td>= 43.8 minutes per month (43 minutes 48 seconds)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>&nbsp;<\/td><td>= Almost an hour of downtime per month.

Bandwidth &amp; Data Transfer:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Hosting companies don\u2019t tell you the difference between these two. They talk about Bandwidth and Data Transfer as the same thing. However, they are different, and you should be aware of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bandwidth is the amount of data transferrable at one time. In other words, bandwidth is the capacity at which you can transfer data at a specific time. It depends on the CPU and the RAM that your hosting provider allocates for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While Data Transfer is the amount of data that your website transfers. Web host companies usually have monthly data transfer limits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When hosting companies tell you that you have 100GB bandwidth per month, they mean data transfer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the bandwidth is low, your visitors will feel that your website is slow. Visitors will have to wait in line for their turn because your server can only handle a certain amount of data at a specific time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, when the data transfer is low, your website may be unavailable after reaching the maximum amount of data transfer for the month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hosting companies won\u2019t give you real bandwidth information but what you can watch out for is the monthly data transfer limit. You should identify how much data your website needs before purchasing a plan. As a beginner, however, you shouldn\u2019t worry about it much<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to calculate how much data transfer you need, here\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webhostingsecretrevealed.net\/blog\/web-hosting-guides\/how-much-bandwidth-does-your-site-really-need\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">an interesting read.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Storage\"><\/span>4. Storage:&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Storage is the amount of disk space you get.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You don\u2019t need much storage if you are running a blog or a simple business website. If you store a lot of videos and high-quality images, then you need more storage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For normal WordPress bloggers, 1GB of storage is more than enough (WordPress + Themes +&nbsp; Some Plugins &lt;100MB of storage).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_SSDHDD\"><\/span>5. SSD\/HDD:&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There are two types of storage available: SSD and HDD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You should choose a web host that uses SSD as its storage device because it is faster. Your website will load a lot faster with SSD than HDD. If you see hosting companies mentioning something like SSD RAID 6, their storage technology is fast and reliable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_CPU_allocation_RAM\"><\/span>6. CPU allocation &amp; RAM:&nbsp;&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>CPU &amp; RAM determines any computer system&#8217;s performance, even the web host.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In shared web hosting, CPU and RAM are shared, and web hosts won\u2019t tell you how much CPU and RAM are allocated for your website. They will cap the amount of memory your website can use at a time (bandwidth).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your website is using an excessive amount of CPU, a good web host will notify you. Some cheap web hosts will make your website unavailable if it uses a lot of resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, another reason you should use a good web host.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>cPanel: cPanel is the most popular control panel for the server-side backend of your website. If a web host uses cPanel, then it means the web host is easy to use. You can easily set up\/manage email, databases, and other apps using cPanel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_AddOn_Domains\"><\/span>7. AddOn Domains:&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>AddOn domains are fully functioning different websites with different content you can host in the same hosting space. You can control all the addon domains from the same cPanel. If you run or plan to run more than one website, you need a web host with an AddOn domain feature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Detailed_Reviews\"><\/span>The Detailed Reviews<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"bluehost\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Bluehost\"><\/span>1.

Thus, it costs more than shared hosting but less than dedicated hosting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Like shared hosting, you don\u2019t get a separate physical web server for your website in VPS hosting. The hosting provider creates a separate dedicated space for you in a virtual environment using the software. It\u2019s like installing multiple OS on your home computer or running many OS in a virtual machine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The host allocates a fixed and dedicated amount of CPU and memory that you can use. Unlike shared hosting, you don\u2019t have to share the allocated CPU and RAM with another website in VPS hosting. You also get root-level access with VPS hosting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You get a more controllable environment. You can install different applications on your own in VPS, but you should have some server knowledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>VPS Hosting = Shared Hosting + Root Access + Dedicated Resources.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Dedicated_hosting\"><\/span>Dedicated hosting<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You get your own physical web server on dedicated hosting. You get to use and manage your CPU and memory. Dedicated hosting is costly, and the cost differs based on the computational power and storage of the webserver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dedicated hosting is like owning your personalized computer in a remote location. You need a server expert to manage dedicated hosting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cloud_hosting\"><\/span>Cloud hosting<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Cloud hosting is a relatively new kind of dedicated hosting. Still, instead of one dedicated physical server, your website will be distributed among various servers located at different physical locations using advanced technology. Your website will use virtual resources of many servers, so your website will never be down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is also a pay-as-you-go-service. You can customize (upgrade or downgrade) your specifications easily, and you have the option to pay for only the resources you need. You can add resources just for peak hours and then downgrade it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cloud Hosting looks so promising, but it isn\u2019t for everyone. Like dedicated hosting, you need specialized people who know how to manage servers to maintain cloud hosting. It is for IT professionals who have to manage demanding web or mobile applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Managed_hosting\"><\/span>Managed hosting<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Managed hosting is a type of hosting that keeps the daily management of servers, system hardwares, and system softwares in the hands of the web hosting provider. The service provider leases dedicated servers and hardwares to a single customer and manages those systems on their behalf.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The services that customers can expect from managed hosting providers include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Backups and recover<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Security services<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Service configuration<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Maintenance and monitoring<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Support to solve technical issues<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Safeguarding data centers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Application support&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Managed hosting is a perfect choice for small businesses with limited IT staff as well as online stores with high traffic. It also works effectively for online enterprises that need up-to-date security features.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Reseller_hosting\"><\/span>Reseller hosting<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Reseller hosting allows a person (company) to rent some disk space and resources from the parent hosting company and sell it to his\/her customers at their own rate. The reseller can configure his own plans and rates using WHM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to provide web services to your customers, then you should get reseller hosting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Resellers are like the retailers of web hosting. They can act like a web hosting company without needing to have the technical expertise of configuring and maintaining a physical web server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, am I getting the web host from a reseller or the parent company?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can\u2019t tell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although there are many good and reputed resellers, we recommend you to get hosting from parent web hosting companies. This review only includes web hosts that have their own servers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"More_on_the_metrics_we_used_for_review%E2%80%A6\"><\/span>More on the metrics we used for review\u2026<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Speed and Performance: <\/strong>We evaluated the bandwidth, CPU, and memory the web hosts provide for shared hosting. You should opt for hosts with SSD storage for a faster website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Uptime<\/strong>: Most websites will claim an uptime speed of 99.9%, but most do not guarantee. Some will make excuses like \u201cmaintenance time\u201d for the downtime they have. Since you are paying them for hosting your website, you should rely on the web hosting companies for maximum server uptime. Our top 10 web hosts did a good job maintaining the uptime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Support<\/strong>: Support is critical because most of us are not an expert on server maintenance. We need help if we run into problems or if hackers attack our website. The Web host should have a fast and reliable support team\u2013 the support team should know what they are handling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our top 10 web host providers provided great and friendly support. You should expect 24\/7 support from web hosts&#8211;be it live chat, support tickets, forums, or phone support. (Most preferred because we can easily explain our problems and, also, we will know for certain that they are there to help us).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Price (Affordability)<\/strong>: As a beginner, for most of us, price matters a lot. Shared hosting is relatively cheap. But, remember, cheap shouldn\u2019t come at the cost of other metrics like support, backup, security, uptime, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Ease of use<\/strong>: Most of the web hosts that use cPanel should be easy to use. But, some web hosts modify cPanel for even better findability. We rated our top 10 web hosts on how easily one can find necessary and important features on the web server&#8217;s control panel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Backup option<\/strong>: Backup should be on your high priority list. You need to backup your website regularly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Backup is the strongest defense against attacks. Some web hosts offer daily backup, some weekly and some monthly. Go for a web host that offers free backup and backup restore\u2013 some may charge you for&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Security<\/strong>: Web hosting companies should regularly update their system. A good web should be responsible for regular malware scans and maintenance of their web server. They should also be able to help you when your website is under a DDoS attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our top 10 performed well on the security aspect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Money-Back Guarantee<\/strong>: So, you purchased a web host trusting our review but didn\u2019t like it after using it for a few days. What do you do? That\u2019s why you should choose a web host that has a money-back guarantee of at least 30 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQs_Frequently_Asked_Questions\"><\/span>FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<div id=\"rank-math-faq\" class=\"rank-math-block\">\n<div class=\"rank-math-list \">\n<div id=\"faq-question-1615183688950\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_choose_the_best_WordPress_hosting_provider\"><\/span>How to choose the best WordPress hosting provider?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>WordPress hosting services are available at different prices ranging from a few dollars a month to thousands of dollars.

For detail review you may check this guide: <a class=\"rank-math-link\" href=\"https:\/\/rarathemes.com\/blog\/siteground-vs-dreamhost\/\">SiteGround Vs DreamHost<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Choosing any one of these two depends on your personal choice.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1615183815474\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_I_build_a_WordPress_website_without_hosting\"><\/span>Can I build a WordPress website without hosting?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>The answer to this question is both yes and no. WordPress comes in two different versions: WordPress.com and WordPress.org. The first version lets you obtain a free domain and website without the need to sign up for hosting on your own.<\/p>\n<p>In general, with WordPress.org, you will be self-hosting your WordPress website, while with WordPress.com, your website exists on WordPress.com, and you will be using a subdomain. You can learn the major differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org here.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1615183836998\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_should_you_choose_a_WordPress_hosting_provider\"><\/span>How should you choose a WordPress hosting provider?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>If you don&#8217;t have enough time or technical expertise to handle all the technical aspects of running your WordPress operation, you should prefer to buy a managed WordPress hosting plan and have the hosting company handle things for you.<\/p>\n<p>The host often imports your previous WordPress blog, if you have one. Usually, you get some pre-installed themes and plugins to simplify customization.<\/p>\n<p>The hosting service should have at least an option to automatically update the website and a security service like SiteLock that keeps your blog malware-free. Besides, you would expect 24\/7 customer support from a team with real WordPress knowledge.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_TakeAway\"><\/span>The TakeAway!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a lot of web hosting companies.
